Streamline the Design Process with 360-Degree Photography and Virtual Tour Services
TOKYO (PRWEB) March 30, 2023 -- RICOH THETA, the line of high-quality 360-degree cameras from Japan-based imaging company Ricoh, recently partnered with Architect and Owner of Albarran Architects, Franco Albarran, to host an educational webinar covering how architecture, construction, and design professionals can incorporate 360-degree technology into their workflow to make the design process – from construction surveying to completion – more efficient.
A RICOH THETA user for two years, Albarran runs a licensed full-service architectural design firm with a focus on custom residential projects, managing both the design and construction phases of the project with a unique Architect Led Design + Build process where the same design professional is the single point of contact from beginning to end.
The webinar focuses on Albarran’s use of the RICOH THETA X, the latest model to join the RICOH THETA series with a large touch screen, interchangeable battery, and external memory card, as well as RICOH360 Tours, Ricoh’s proprietary platform that makes creating professional quality virtual tours easy. These tools offer Franco and his team many benefits including the ability to view project progress remotely as well as reference existing components behind walls such as electrical wires or water lines, which can be a helpful reference point for plumbing or electric issues in the future. Both the RICOH THETA X and RICOH360 Tours platform proved to streamline workflow while also allowing Franco to easily share 360-degree tours with his team, clients, and utilize in marketing materials.
“I’ve found RICOH THETA cameras to be extremely useful due to their ability to capture the full view of a space, allowing me to see multiple aspects of a building site. I’m also able to track construction progress without physically going to the jobsite, reducing the frequency of in-person site visits,” said Albarran. “Since incorporating RICOH THETA into my workflow, I’ve been able to streamline my process and provide value to my clients with immersive, detailed imagery.”
